Defined project
A potential model to confirm against the need, scope, responsibilities, and current availability.
How we work
Make the work understandable before making it bigger.
A consulting engagement should reduce uncertainty, not add another layer of it. The proposed process makes the need, roles, decisions, and next steps visible from the beginning.
From context to delivery
A straightforward path, with decisions at each stage.
- 01
Discovery
Share what is happening, the change you want, why it matters now, and constraints already known.
- 02
Fit and scoping
Aktiv clarifies the need, asks questions, and determines whether the work and working arrangement are a fit.
- 03
Proposal and agreement
The scope should identify outcomes, work, responsibilities, timing, assumptions, fees, and terms.
- 04
Delivery
The team works to the agreed plan with deliberate decisions, reviews, and change control.
- 05
Follow-through
Close with agreed handoff, documentation, and next steps.
Engagement philosophy
The process should make the need, responsibilities, decisions, and next steps visible. Aktiv begins with context and defines the work before expanding it.
Who does what
Aktiv is responsible for the work and decisions assigned in the agreed scope.
The client supplies timely context, access, decisions, and feedback. Named owners and collaborators are confirmed before delivery.
Fit parameters
Fit depends on the need, scope, timing, decision access, required capabilities, and current availability. If those conditions do not align, Aktiv should say so early.
Confidentiality, data, and platforms
Confidentiality, access, data handling, platform ownership, and security requirements must be agreed before sensitive information or credentials are shared.
What to bring to the first conversation
- A plain description of the situation
- What you want to be different
- Timing, constraints, and known stakeholders

Frequently asked questions
What happens after I submit an inquiry?
Aktiv first determines whether the need and working arrangement are a fit. The exact scoping and proposal process requires confirmation.
How long does an engagement take?
Most focused sprints take 2–6 weeks. Larger activations and digital products are scheduled around scope, dependencies, and decision speed.
Can Aktiv work with our existing team or vendors?
Potentially. Responsibilities, decision rights, handoffs, and communication should be defined in the scope.
Have an important initiative?
